G35 Paint Color Fading?

Post by **Nadia** » Tue Jul 17, 2007 9:50 am

I just bought an 04 Coupe in twilight blue. I haven't gotten it detailed yet but I'm hoping it'll make a difference. Right now the color(especially on the hood) look a bit faded. Doesn't have the rich, dark tone it should. I don't think it was garaged the whole time and it's been in the sun a lot. Anyone had/have a similar problem?

Sounds like you might have some oxidation. Generally a sign of poor paint maintenance (regular washing and waxing). As long as there is enough good clearcoat left, then it can be buffed out. I'd have a GOOD detailer look at it to see what he thinks...
